These Big Horn Sheep are in the Canadian Rockies. Handsome sheep and a good excuse to paint snow. This is a 20×16 inch acrylic painting on board.

It’s taken me a few days but I’ve finally got the photos from Bromley sorted out and up op on flickr!  Here they are….

Or view the slide show.

Cats, Dogs and Other Animals is on at The Ripley Arts Centre until the 28th of August.

I’ve been working hard on new paintings for the last two months, getting paintings finished for my new show, Cats, Dogs and Other Animals, at Ripley Arts Centre in Bromley next week. This one is Louisa, a Hebridean sheep. They are very beautiful sheep and a joy to paint. This is a 12×12 inch acrylic painting on board. If you want to see her you’ll need to come along to the Ripley Arts Centre, the show is on until August the 28th.

One of the black Hebridean sheep from the Ashdown forest flock. This is an oil painting on board. It took ages to get it right and I very nearly abandoned it. But all of a sudden it seemed to come together.

I’m glad it did because these eyes are quite something.

Here it is framed.

The flock in the snow. Another Ashdown Forest painting. This one is 12 x 8 inches.

Here it is framed.

Here’s one of the large Ashdown Forest paintings framed. I’m very pleased with these frames, they look wonderful. This is the flock of Hebridean sheep moving through the forest heath.

Here’s a close up of the canvas…

This is another painting for the Ashdown Forest show. The sheep are heading home in the evening light. This is a small 10×8 oil on board. Not sure of a title yet.
